Day of the Dead Vest

The Day of the Dead vest is a sleeveless vest with a V-neck and an all-over print of colorful sugar skulls on a black background. The skulls are decorated with flowers, hearts, and curls in blue, pink, yellow, and green, making the vest look almost like a mosaic up close. Men wear it to a Halloween party, a Dia de los Muertos evening, or a themed party around the Mexican Day of the Dead.

What does the Day of the Dead vest look like?

• The front panels are printed with dozens of white calavera skulls with multicolored floral motifs.
• The back and the inside are solid black and shiny, as you can see in the back photo.
• The vest fastens at the front with buttons and has a deep V-neck, so a shirt underneath remains clearly visible.
• The material is 100% polyester.
• Hand wash: this keeps the bright colors of the print in place.

The Mexican Day of the Dead behind this vest

Day of the Dead, known as Dia de los Muertos in Mexico, is the holiday where the deceased are joyfully remembered in early November with music, flowers, and decorated skulls. These painted skulls are called calaveras and have become the symbol of the holiday: not grim death heads, but smiling faces full of color. While a classic Halloween costume is mainly aimed at scaring, this style opts for celebration and color. This also makes the vest suitable for a themed party where you want to stand out without looking macabre.

Styling the Day of the Dead vest with accessories

Wear the vest over a black long-sleeved shirt and black trousers, just like in the photo, so that the print gets all the attention. Paint your face white with black eye sockets and fine lines around the mouth to complete the calavera look. A black hat, an orange or red flower in the lapel, and a dark cloak for outdoors go well with it. If you want more color, choose jewelry with bright stones in the same shades as the skulls.
